The Secret Service is investigating why their 2nd attempt didn't work.

I am a Republican. I pray both candidates are safe. I dont hate anyone enough to see them die over politics. KEEP THEM BOTH SAFE.🙏🙏🙏

It’s amazing reading the comments how many people would rather try to make a half baked point rather than ruminate on the fact that assasination attempts are true threat to democracy no matter if it’s the candidate you support or not.

[BobZasada]

Hopefully there aren't any sloped situations that could endanger the secret service.

[AllysonPorter-hl]

This is not the Country I grew up in. It is horrible and completely unacceptable happening yet again.

Gunshots in the vicinity? Welcome to America.

[flameofudun]

Don't worry I am sure the new head of secret service ordered another two hour webinar for training to prevent any similar event in the future.

How did the shooter know the time and place trump was going to be.

IT WASN'T AT MAR A LAGO.
Your anchor keeps saying it was at Mar A Lago but it was at the Trump International Course a few miles away.
A guy poked an AK-47 through the fence a few holes ahead of the President.
They caught him on I-95
so he's not dead. He's in custody.
